Like the PP said it reminds me of LOTR, but I think it's really pretty. I'm not sure I'd use it myself though.

Is that from The Black Cauldron?

I like it but it's a little to Sci-Fi/Fantasy for me to actually use.

Honestly, I like it.
I'm usually a snob for names that sound made up.

It reminds of Eowyn.

I'm surprised that I like it. I would prefer Ellawen, though.

The spelling isn't too pleasing to me, but the sound is nice. =)

I also thought of LotR, haha; I kind of like it. I don't really like the way it looks, though....

I'm assuming it's supposed to be Elowen, which is a Cornish name. I think it's pretty. It does have a neat fantasy feel to it because it's so close to Eowyn.

No, you're probably thinking of Eilonwy. :)

I know a young girl named Ellawyn.
It's a lovely name.

I like it. I love names like that. Old Gaelic-y names.

I love it but I'm a big fan of Cornish names. <3

Going to agree with the couple of posters who said that they weren't fond of the spelling; it's not really all that pleasing to me, either, but I like the sound of it!
